I see potential hurdles when it comes to resale but who knows what the future holds for these type of properties.

No need to dig through lists—just explore the map and find potential investment opportunities quickly!

Having said that, this is ultimately why I keep pricelabs, it gives me a structure to easily adjust prices via seasonality which I did not have before, it also continues my prices beyond the 12 month window - this helps if I forget to adjust future pricing and then the platform goes back to my default base rate kind of thing.Having said that I am no master or expert of PriceLabs. 

Then, more advanced stuff that those without licenses will have a tough time with: active real estate agents working the area - so i can call them to preview my house - in case they run into potential buyers they know of in their office, Then, I have Listingbook software on my I-phone ( Works with MLS data- by subscription)- that actually knows the number of searches of homes in any given area - so I can blast a promotion of my house to all the agents that have clients looking in the area (not just my subdivision -unless that is what I want), and...for the investor in me: track all the mortgages recorded against the property, so I know how low of an offer I can make - based on the mortgages on the property.

As far as a DST goes for replacement property, it can be a great potential solution for those who are no longer interested in the traditional responsibilites of ownership any longer or who may be having a difficult time finding adequate replacement property or properties. 

From there we identify properties that could have some potential and if you are interesting in diving deeper, 1) we do a thorough video walkthrough to give you a realistic look of the property, 2) we give a ballpark estimate of rehab costs (we do 40 a year with our GCs o we will get pretty close), 3) we talk through market rent with our property management team, ARV, and potential highest and best use.Ideally you find great investor agents who know their market really well and have a network of resources to provide you with enough confidence to take reasonable action. 

With this in mind, if you intend to leverage short-term debt (hard money), it's even more vital that your underwriting is thorough and that you have the correct systems in place to tackle potential issues.

Thank you for being potential resources!

Wishing you the most success on your future! 

It sounds like your current property manager may not be marketing the rental effectively, and the fact that it's listed incorrectly as an apartment instead of a duplex could be turning off potential renters.
